People maybe knows that book is my lover. Well... not kind of Encyclopedia or something like that. My mind is full of non-fiction stuffs. I love reading lots of novels in every genre.
Book can set you free. Book can let your imagination fly away. Book can express everything in every words. Book is better than movie. Book knows how to do it.
I used to read Hansel and Gretel, Snow White, Alice in Wonderland, or even Beauty and the Beast. Just say it, I already read every single of them. It feels like your childhood is complete with those stories. It makes you to pretend to be one of them, a girl who lived in a palace and bla bla bla.
Then I read about true story, like Helen Keller, Isaac Newton, Sidharta Gautama, Mahatma Gandhi, Hans Christian Andersen, Walt Disney, and many others. That time... I felt I wannabe one of them. I wannabe Helen Keller who has been a great inspiration for every single of us. I wannabe Mr. Andersen who made lots of wonderful story, I wannabe Walt Disney who made a mouse as his inspiration.
The first ever love story novel I'd ever read was Fairish (Indonesian novel by Esti Kinasih), and I read that when I was just in the 2nd grade! :O Then I read lots of Indonesian novels like 5CM, Laskar Pelangi, Touche, Bali to Remember, and LOTS. In the 9th grade, I read the prequel of Ilana Tan. It's Summer in Seoul, Autumn in Paris, Winter in Tokyo, and Spring in London. Those books are great! I mean... SUPER DUPER GREAT! It sets my mind to travel the world. Then today I borrowed a book from my friend (Dara) named 8... 9... 10... Udah Belom? AAAAAHH.... It's so amazing.
But the point of these are... Book travels you. Book sets you free. It can express you.
Sincerly,
The lover of Book.
